CORTECO 12014811 FPM Rotary Shaft Seal - 47.6 x 72 x 8 mm

Applications

The CORTECO 12014811 FPM Oil Seal is a precision-engineered rotary shaft seal designed for demanding industrial and automotive environments. With an inner diameter of 47.6 mm, outer diameter of 72 mm and width of 8 mm, it serves as a technical seal in rotating shaft systems where reliable sealing, long life and resistance to oils and grease are required.
Typical applications include gearboxes and drivelines (e.g. OE replacement for CARRARO 131257), hydraulic drives, engines and industrial equipment where a shaft sealing ring must protect bearings and components from contamination and fluid loss.
By selecting this oil seal, B2B buyers in manufacturing, transport, agricultural-machinery and maintenance can achieve improved uptime and reduced leakage risk thanks to its robust design for industrial applications.

Advantages & Key Features

• Material: FPM (fluoroelastomer, also known as Viton®) offering high durability and excellent resistance to oils, greases, synthetic lubricants and high temperatures.

• Design: radial rotary seal (single-lip or double-lip concept) tailored for rotating shafts, delivering sealing efficiency and protection against ingress of dust, dirt and other contaminants.

• Construction dimensions 47.6 x 72 x 8 mm align with common industrial sealing ring standards and interchange specifications ensuring compatibility.

• High durability: designed for industrial environments demanding “shaft seal”, “rotary seal” or “shaft sealing ring” solutions where resistance to oils and grease is critical.

• Ready for B2B procurement: available from warehouse in Lublin, ul. Smoluchowskiego 1, building 4 with 24 h delivery service for fast order processing.

Technical Data

Why choose this rotary shaft seal?

In modern industrial and automotive systems, sealing solutions must meet exacting demands - the rotary shaft seal must not allow lubricant leakage and must exclude contaminants, thereby protecting bearings and drive systems. As specialist literature notes, the main function of a rotary shaft seal (also called radial oil seal) is to enable friction-free rotation by preventing lubricant from escaping and contamination from entering.
The market for rotary shaft seals is growing steadily due to increasing automation, more complex machinery and the need for high durability sealing solutions in industrial applications.
By choosing this CORTECO seal, you gain a professional, industrial-grade technical seal that addresses these demands - a true “oil seal”, “shaft sealing ring”, “rotary seal” designed for high durability, resistance to oils and grease, and industrial applications.

FAQ

Q1: What’s the difference between a single lip oil seal and a double lip oil seal?
A: A single lip oil seal (often referred to as SC or single-lip seal) has one primary lip sealing the fluid side; it is suitable where contamination risk is moderate. A double lip oil seal (often TC or double-lip design) incorporates a second lip (or dust lip) to prevent ingress of external contaminants and provide enhanced sealing in harsher conditions.

Q2: Why choose FPM (fluoroelastomer) material rather than NBR?
A: FPM offers markedly higher resistance to high temperatures, synthetic oils, greases, fuel and aggressive media, making it ideal for demanding industrial and automotive applications. NBR is cost-effective and suitable for standard environments but has lower resistance thresholds.

Q3: How do I select the correct shaft seal size for my system?
A: Key selection criteria include the inner diameter matching the rotating shaft, the outer diameter matching the housing bore or ally for proper press fit, and the width corresponding to available axial space. Also consider material compatibility (elastic compound), lip design (single/double), rotation speed, pressure, temperature, and type of fluid or grease. For this product you’ll match 47.6 x 72 x 8 mm dimensions.

Q4: Can this seal be used in hydraulic or automotive applications?
A: Yes — this seal is engineered for industrial and automotive use in rotating shaft systems, including hydraulic drives and drivelines. Its fluoroelastomer material and industrial design allow high durability in such contexts.

Q5: What are the benefits of ordering through the B2B platform?
A: Through our B2B platform you get direct access to this industrial-grade rotary shaft seal, bulk-order options, professional support, fast dispatch from our Lublin warehouse (ul. Smoluchowskiego 1, building 4), and 24h delivery to help minimise downtime in maintenance and production operations.
